Description
This was done back in May, shortly after I finished reading the Dune saga. That is, Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune. I had already read the previous books by Frank Herbert. I won't bore you with my opinion about the books but I thought the saga as a whole deserved some fanart so here it is.

This is a Fremen. I think I'll let Wikipedia explain who they are for me:

The Fremen are a group of people in the fictional Dune universe created by Frank Herbert. First appearing in the 1965 novel Dune, the Fremen inhabit the desert planet Arrakis and are based on the desert-dwelling Bedouin and Kalahari Bushmen. In Herbert's novels, Arrakis (also known as Dune) is the sole known source of the all-important spice melange in the universe. The Fremen come to the planet thousands of years before the events of the novel Dune as the Zensunni Wanderers, a religious sect in retreat. As humans in extremis, over time they adapt their culture and way of life to survive and thrive in the incredibly harsh conditions of Arrakis. The Fremen are distinguished by their fierce fighting abilities and adeptness at survival in these conditions. With water such a rare commodity on the planet, their culture revolves around its preservation and conservation.

Again, I got the background from cgtextures. I tried to add a depth of field effect with the blur but I'm not sure I achieved it.
